Title: Hi all I'm new here
Post by: Gibbseem89 on June 26, 2023, 01:35:34 PM
Hi all I'm new here my names matt and from swindon, I have a 1990 golf 5 door silver 1600 driver  (called "gloria" from madagascar) nothing special but I like it, I'm trying to getbit back on the road after being off for 12 years, she runs now and drives I just have to rebuild the carb which I am doing now and get a new tyre and send for mot to get the fail sheet to see where it stands the car is not a minter but was tidy when I parked it up, cosmetically I realy need a rear nearside door as my one was caved in then I sanded and rusted it and then my brother pulled the dent and painted but doesn't look very good, if anyone has one let me know. I also have a 89 red gti small bumper to eventually get on the road which is actualy still red and fairly tidy.

Thanks

Matt

Hi Matt  welcome I know we have a few members your way.  If you fancy a drive out, we have a Bristol meet first Friday of the month.  I would need to get you the address.

Mk2 Spares might be a good place to start.
